I'm always a bit suspicious when a Journalist is killed like this. Who were those who may have been threatened by what he published?

No good guys here. Hamas doesn't seem to serve the Palestinians, they serve their own Jihadist agenda. Isreal remains a fascist apartheid regime which has been systematically killing all Palestinians in a genocide for decades.

RFKJ is not a Democrat. His funding is all from MAGA billionaire Trumpers. His media presence is all on far-right sources. His message is conspiratorial Q-anon nonsense. Now he is lockstep with Republican anti-abortion policy. His whole purpose is to undermine any legitimate Democratic party candidacy.

Ubuntu is massively overrated. It's a bloated distro owned by a greedy corporation.

Far right white supremacist killings of Jews is far more prevalent in the US than Muslim killings of Jews. My first suspects would be among the extreme right.

Trump knows he can't win in a court of law, so he wants to win in the court of public opinion, where a con-man like him actually has some leverage over the gullible.

Hillary is toxic to the brand. The Democrats would be wise to keep her at arms distance.

"Adolf Hitler actually said that Jewish people and migrants were ‘causing a blood poisoning’ of Germany.”

Developers would be foolish not to begin transition plans off of Unity. The next Unity LTS version will still require the runtime fee.

Biden is trying to score points with conservatives here, but it just won't work in today's ideologically divided political climate. Conservative views are not based on reason, and this action would assume that conservatives would be reasonable.

Strange. I mean it has been obvious all along that the Democratic party would support the incumbent. I would be really surprised to see another candidate come forward with the charisma and funding to be a serious contender. That candidate would most certainly not be this guy.

Xwitter is a Nazi hate cesspool. I deleted my account not long after Musk took over. I would be delighted to see it fail, and Musk brought down a few notches.

Hard to believe Tumblr lasted this long even. They killed like 3/4 of their content (and audience) when they decided to not have any porn like 4 years ago. Everybody left. An early example of enshitification.

Meanwhile bodies are piling up on the streets in Gaza with nobody to count them.

Hmm. Most of these seem like fairly minor inaccuracies. Some are more inaccurate, but all seem to have some bearing on real events he was involved in. I'm not really seeing an intentional weaving of untruth like I see in many other politicians at this time. I more see the unscripted memory recall of an older person.

The extreme right GOP wants to disable the Government. For them, this is not a bug, it is a feature. It will ensure that a budget is not passed in the upcoming budget expiration. At that point, not only will the congress be shutdown, but the government will be shutdown as well.

Better than exploiting other countries, I suppose. But I think Lithium is a transitional battery source, and that we will move to much more efficient designs within a decade.

NYT should simply walk away from Xwitter. NPR did so with no apparent loss of viewership.

Far right media considers "Fact Based" to be a "Liberal Bias".

The bill also contained provisions to cut funding for the IRS so rich tax cheats could get away with it. Everyone knew the bill would fail. It was theater on the part of the House Republicans, who passed the bill to the Dem controlled Senate.

"Cisco said the threat actors are compromising the devices after acquiring administrative credentials and that there’s no indication they are exploiting vulnerabilities. Cisco also said that the hacker’s ability to install malicious firmware exists only for older company products. Newer ones are equipped with secure boot capabilities that prevent them from running unauthorized firmware."

"Polling suggests RFKJr's third party bid could draw more votes from Trump than President Joe Biden in a general election."

Yup. first time I have seen capybaras used as a unit of measurement.

This is the kind of deadly nonsense that happens when you have a religious state. US Christian nationalists should take note, though they support Netanyahu for the sole reason that it reinforces their biblical doomsday prophecies of their own.

But the MAGA House Republicans DO want a Government shutdown. We must face that basic fact. They are anti-government, so a government shutdown is exactly what they want. We must find a way to make a shutdown cost them something which they find important, or they will never try to work out a solution.

Sarah Palin and her allies have been wanting a civil war all along. There won't be one, but her kind of language will give license for extremist militia groups to do acts of terrorist violence.

What could possibly go wrong?

Our schools are looking more and more like prisons.

Maybe it's because everyone is struggling with high costs of housing, food, and healthcare, among other things, while wages have remained flat and stagnant for decades.

Nazi racist defends Elon Musk anti-semitic remarks. No surprises.

So this is "Austrailia Broadcasting Corporation", not the ABC (American broadcasting Company) which I am familiar with in the US. I presume they share no more than an acronym.

I don't consider the Pentagon to be a reliable source for information when they have a vested interest in the conflict. Remember when they said Saddam Hussain had "weapons of mass destruction" which was used to justify the Iraq invasion? Well there never were any. The Pentagon manufactured that disinformation, and media parroted it like loyal puppets.

The article has an embedded side-note indicating that the measure is unlikely to pass.

That's alot of effort to go from one horrible programming language to another horrible programming language.

Republicans WANT something catastrophic. They are opposed to government "in general" and would be fine seeing the corporate billionaires take over completely without any government in the way.

I think it has nothing to do with children. It is about requiring ID registration for online services so that identities can be tracked. Every time authoritarians want to push another mechanism of control it's always "about the children".

A few years ago, I switched from Firefox to Chrome. A few months ago, I switched back to Firefox. Chrome is rolling out changes which are completely unacceptable, such as making adblockers impossible, and using my private browsing history for their own ads.

Good cops get fired. Do you know what happens when an abusive cop's partner tries to prevent an instance of brutality or racism?

Shame on any Democrats who joined the Repubs for this injustice. She speaks the truth against massive pressure from AIPAC. It's a McCarthy atmosphere where anyone who dares speak a balanced perspective on Israel and Palestine gets crushed.

By holding the opponent's lance between her legs in her crotch, she both pleasures herself, and prevents further attacks by her opponent.
